How to easy find music in Library that wasn't added to any Playlist?

Hi, people. A very particular question: normally, I have all my music in Library and added to a specific Play list. How can I easy search music in Library that weren't added to any play list yet?
And LBNL how can I easy search music that doesn't exist (only link in iTunes) to delete the broken link?
thanks for your tips.

There's a slightly cumbersome way of finding out which songs aren't in a playlist. From the File menu in iTunes, Select Make a New Playlist folder. Call it whatever you want. Then, move all of your playlists into that folder (don't worry, you can move them again later). Then, from the File menu, choose Make a new Smart Playlist. The criterion for the Smartplaylist should be "Playlist is NOT <name of playlist folder>". The songs in the resulting playlist will be the ones that aren't in the other playlists.
Best of luck.

How to show show the songs in my library that don't belong in any playlist?

I'm sure there's a way to do this and I'm just not thinking hard enough. Does anyone know how I can show the songs in my library that don't belong in any playlists?

jaypogi,
Welcome to Discussions.
Use one of these scripts:
Not In Any Playlist creates a text file listing of those songs.
Not In Any Playlist To Playlist puts them in a playlist.
Hope this helps.

How do I find music and movies that didn't copy over after restoring Ipod?

I restored my ipod and all of my movies and music didn't copy back over. (Most did.) How do I find the ones that didn't? When I check Itunes it showed them in the cloud before and now they are not even showing up in Itunes. What are we doing wrong?

Hello Cindy,
It sounds like not all your purchases transferred to your computer before your restored your iPod touch. I found an article with some steps to download your past iTunes purchases. I recommend following the steps in the section titled "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer" in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

How do i find music on iphone that is not from the cloud

The list of songs on my iphone is endless, but most of that music is still in the cloud. Is there a way to get the phone to display only the music that is actually physically downloaded onto my phone already? TIA

It sounds like she may be using a different account then the one that was used to purchase 10.8
If you cannot locate the purchase, contact the iTunes Store so they can help you figure out which account it's attached to.

How do I find music that has been uploaded to iTunes from a purchased CD and iTunes is "unable to find the original file?" I no longer have the CD. I have tried all the usual methods of looking in my iTunes library and through Find. No Luck.

Backup drive?
Subscribe to iTunes Match?
If neither of the above and you don't have the CD and can't find your tracks on the computer then they you're stuck. A file recovery utility will cost $100, plus another $100 for an external drive to which to resue the files, and may not even work. You can buy a lot of CDs for $200.

How do I find music from Turkey?

how do I find music from Turkey?

I don't know of any easy way to search for Turkish music. All I can suggest is that you use the Browse feature (it's under the Quick Links on the home iTunes Store page) and browse the World section. Whether there's any Turkish music on the iTunes Store at all I don't know.

Most browsers have a dedicated folder where they store downloaded files. Have you checked there? What OS are you using? What browser are you using? Did you run the installer? What ads? Where do you see them? Post a screen shot for anything you have difficulty explaining. Most of the time it is easier if we can see what you see.

Hi
If you press the "alt key" and click on Go when on the Finder display, Library is shown halfway down - just click on it to open.

Found it. It is under keychain. Then you click the "i" button at the bottom of the page. It will pull up a box where you can check another box that states "show password". Then you will have to put in your keychain master password, and then .....boom! there it is.

HT1349 I need help finding an old library that itunes states my ipod is already linked to

I need help finding an old library that it states my ipod is already linked to. My computer recently had a terrible virus and needed to be wiped clean. I had to redownload itunes and I bought several songs. I want to add them to my old library because I had several cd's that I had uploaded. Is there a way to find that old library and combine them without having to erase all the songs that are currently on my ipod??? Thanks

Umm. If you wiped the hard drive, then all old libraries are gone unless you have them on backup.
